AHU TUĞBA'S DAUGHTER: I KISSED MY MOTHER AND PUT HER TO SLEEP, WHEN I WENT TO HER SHE WAS ICE COLD
Alejnatij, who has been living with her mother for many years, described the moments when she found her mother dead in her bed during a phone call to the program Söylemezsem Olmaz today. Alejnatij, who stated that her mother had done everything for her and never left her side, said, "My mother had advanced stage COPD for a long time and she hadn't been feeling well for the past few days. We talked in the evening, I kissed my mother and said I love you, and we went to sleep. I woke up in the afternoon and thought my mother was resting, but when it was night, there was still no sound. Then I called 911. I went to my mother and my precious little pearl was ice cold. It is the greatest pain in the world to find a mother in that way for a child. May God never let my enemy experience it. I wish they had taken my heart out so that I wouldn't have seen my mother like that," she said.
